Initial Operation

An example program follows which uses BASIC and the SCPI language to
get you started using the Form C Switch. The example assumes an Agilent
9000 Series 200/300 (or equivalent) computer and a General Purpose
Interface Bus (GPIB). (GPIB is the implementation of the IEEE 488.2-1987
standard.)

This program closes channel 02 of a Form C Switch at logical address 120
(secondary address = 120/8 = 15) and queries the channel closure state. The
result is returned to the computer and displayed (1 = channel closed, 0 =
channel open). See the Agilent 75000 Series B Installation and Getting
Started Guide
for information on addressing.

Example: Close Form C Switch Channel

10 OUTPUT 70915;"CLOS (@102)"

! Close channel 02

20 OUTPUT 7091 5;"CLOS? (@102)"

! Query channel 02 state

30 ENTER 70915;Value

! Enter result into Value

40 PRINT Value

! Display result

50 END
